AMBASSADORS OF THE WORD

St. John’s Lutheran Church is a congregation of over 450 Lutheran Christians who regularly meets at 500 North Cumberland Avenue in Russellville, Arkansas. It is a constituted member of the Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod and of its representative body the Mid-South District which spans not only Arkansas but also Tennessee and the southern third of Kentucky. The congregation’s mission is to “actively seek and empower ambassadors of the Word in the service of our Lord Jesus Christ.” Its members are therefore often referred to as “ambassadors of the Word.”
